Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for aligning solder balls, and in particular to a method for aligning solder balls suitable for aligning and sticking solder balls onto electrodes of a semi­conductor chip or connection pads of a circuit substrate beforehand.
  • a semiconductor chip is mounted on a circuit substrate, and solder balls are heated and melted to couple the electrodes of the semiconductor chip with connection pads of the circuit substrate electrically and mechanically. In implementing this method, it becomes necessary to align and stick onto electrodes of the semiconductor chip or connection pads of the circuit substrate.
  • solder balls Such alignment of solder balls has heretofore been performed as follows. First of all, a mask having a number of holes corresponding to aligned positions of the solder balls is placed on the electrode face of the semiconductor chip or the component mounting face of the circuit substrate, and solder balls are supplied onto the mask. Under this state, the mask is vibrated to put solder balls into holes of the mask, or solder balls are put into holes manually one by one by using a tool such as a vacuum pincette or a brush. Thereafter extra solder balls existing on the mask are removed by using a brush, for example.
  • solder balls might adhere to each other and solder balls might adhere to a tool such as a brush because of static electricity. Therefore, solder balls might not get easily into holes of the mask and solder balls aligned once might jump out from holes when extra solder balls on the mask are removed, resulting in a problem of extremely low work efficiency.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide an efficient method for aligning solder balls with the above described problem.
  • the above described object is achieved by supplying solder balls on an aligning plate having aligned through-holes formed therein and sucking air from the bottom of the aligning plate to make the solder balls fit into and adhere to the through-holes.
  • solder balls supplied onto the aligning plate are attracted into through-holes of the aligning plate by air, it is possible to align solder balls on the aligning plate sufficiently without being affected by static electricity. Since solder balls aligned once are attracted into through-holes of the aligning plate, solder balls already aligned do not jump out from the through-holes when extra solder balls are removed by a brush or the like. Therefore, efficient aligning work becomes possible.
  • Figs. 1 and 2 are rough sectional views used for explaining an embodiment of the present invention.
  • numeral 1 denotes an alignment plate, which is formed by sticking two plates, i.e., a lower plate 2 and an upper plate 3 together.
  • the material of the plates 2 and 3 comprises glass or ceramics, for example.
  • glass photo­sensitive glass having excellent working performance, heat-resistance and adaptability in the rate of expansion with semiconductor chip, for example, is often used.
  • through-holes 4 having smaller diameters than outer diameters of solder balls to be aligned are opened at positions corresponding to alignment positions.
  • through-holes 5 having slightly larger diameters than outside diameters of solder balls are opened at positions corresponding to the through-holes 4.
  • Numeral 6 denotes an aligning plate fixing block for fixing the aligning plate 1.
  • An air sucking nozzle 8 is coupled to the aligning plate fixing block 6 so as to face an opening 7 of the aligning plate fixing block.
  • the air sucking nozzle 8 is connected to a vacuum pump or the like, which is not illustrated, via a tube or the like.
  • the aligning plate 1 is fixed to the aligning plate fixing block 6 and solder balls 9 are supplied onto the aligning plate 1.
  • Air suction using the sucking nozzle 8 is then started. Since air on the surface of the aligning plate 1 is sucked via the through-holes 4 and 5, solder balls 9 located near through-holes 5 are attracted into the through-holes together with air and eventually attracted and held under the state that they are fitted into the through-holes 5. That is to say, the through-holes 5 serve as guide holes for attracting solder balls 9, while the lower through­holes 4 actually position and attract the solder balls.
  • solder balls 9 are aligned at all through-hole positions, the surface of the aligning plate 1 is swept by a brush 10 as shown in Fig. 2, for example, to remove extra solder balls existing on the aligning plate 1. Since solder balls already aligned are held in the through-holes 4 by the air suction during this work, solder balls already aligned do not jump out from the through-holes 4. The fact that only upper portions of the aligned solder balls protrude slightly from the surface of the aligning plate 1 and most portions of the aligned solder balls are within the through-holes 5 is also effective in preventing the escape of the solder balls already aligned.
  • the air suction is stopped, and the aligning plate 1 for aligning the solder balls is removed from the aligning plate fixing block 6. The work for aligning the solder balls is thus completed.
  • the aligning plates 2 and 3 are removed from the aligning plate fixing block 6, and a circuit substrate 11 is placed on the aligning plates 2 and 3 to perform soldering work, as shown in Fig. 3.
  • solder balls are supplied onto the aligning plate under the state that the air suction is stopped in the above described embodiment.
  • solder balls may be supplied while the air suction is being performed.
  • the structure of the aligning plate may be changed suitably.
  • two plates of the aligning plate 1, i.e., the lower plate 2 and the upper plate 3 may be formed as one body.
  • the method of the present invention is similarly applicable to alignment of small balls other than solder balls.
  • the present invention brings about an effect that solder balls can be aligned easily and efficiently.
